This strategic plan is a guidance document for the Glen Canyon Dam Adaptive Management Program and was developed by program members. Elements of this plan include the Glen Canyon Dam Adaptive Management Work Group’s vision and mission statements, as well as principles, goals, and management objectives. One of the primary objectives of the program is to meet the environmental and monitoring commitments of the Glen Canyon Dam Final Environmental Impact Statement and Record of Decision, and comply with the Grand Canyon Protection Act of 1992. The Grand Canyon Protection Act mandated the preparation of the Final Environmental Impact Statement and Record of Decision to direct operations of Glen Canyon Dam and use other authorities in such a manner as to protect, mitigate adverse impacts to, and improve the values for which Grand Canyon National Park and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area were established. Recognizing the complexity of this task, the Record of Decision for the Operation of Glen Canyon Dam Final Environmental Impact Statement directed the Bureau of Reclamation and other interested agencies, tribes, organizations, and individuals to use an adaptive management approach for implementing the preferred alternative. This approach is described in this strategic plan. It is anticipated that this strategic plan is a long-term plan; however, it is recommended that the Adaptive Management Work Group review this plan at the beginning of every other federal fiscal year. The review process should be completed within six months of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the review takes place. If any of the stakeholders or the interested public identify changes that are needed to the strategic plan, including changes to any of the goals, management objectives, or information needs, these recommendations will be made to the Adaptive Management Work Group for approval and incorporation in a revised plan. |
| GCDAMP Strategic Plan The GCDAMP Strategic Plan (AMPSP) is a long-term plan drafted in August 2001 by GCDAMP and GCMRC participants that identifies the AMWG’s vision, mission, principles, goals, management objectives, information needs, and management actions. |
Strategic Science Plan The GCMRC Strategic Science Plan (SSP) identifies general strategies for the next 5 years to provide science information responsive to the goals, management objectives, and priority questions as described in the AMPSP and other planning direction approved by the AMWG. |
Core Monitoring Plan The GCMRC Core Monitoring Plan (CMP) describes the consistent, long-term, repeated measurements using scientifically accepted protocols to measure status and trends of key resources to answer specific questions. Core monitoring is implemented on a fixed schedule regardless of budget or other circumstances (for example, water year, experimental flows, temperature control, stocking strategy, nonnative control, etc.) affecting target resources. |
Monitoring and Research Plan The GCMRC Monitoring and Research Plan (MRP) specifies (1) core monitoring activities, (2) research and development activities, and (3) long-term experimental activities consistent with the strategies and priorities established in this SSP to be conducted over the next 5 years to address some of the strategic science questions associated with AMWG priority questions. |
Triennial Work Plan (TWP) The GCMRC Triennial Work Plan (TWP) identifies the scope, objectives, and budget for monitoring and research activities planned for a 3-year period. When completed, the triennial work plan will be consistent with the MRP. |
